Dragon's Lair 30th Anniversary Reviews

Looping Plat Forms

DekuScrub777

I Love dragon’s lair there is so much amazing about this port but there is one problem that desperately has to be fix. One of the platform scenes will not respond leaving you unable to finish the game in the future I hope to see this fixed then I will change my rating to 5 stars.

Criticisms of this ‘port’ are unfair and inaccurate

This is one of the best ports o have ever seen. I don’t know why the one mega neighsayer said the timing was bad. As I recall, the arcade machines were just as bad, highly persnickety and this is a faithful reproduction of that it seems. It also depends on the speed of your hardware somewhat how lagging sync issues can be and what you have in the background sucking up processor time. I found it as playable as the arcade except I’m more fond of an actual joystick. The video is one of the cleanest and clearest renditions I have seen of this game and I’ve played it on almost every system I’ve owned. The non arcade booth facade gameplay is better and I’m not sure yet what difference is between arcade or home version but there are lots of different options and combinations thereof to try. It’s a very faithful rendition. It may be a tad bit better than the previous gold standard DVD video version which was until now the most complete best looking version I had played. Glad to see an old favorite from the magical era of laserdisc make a combative. Now if someone oh someone would just please put out Cobra Command and that other hyper realistic looking space game that game out during that same game era.. I’d be really really happy about that. Two awesome games completely disappeared. They were more fun than Dragon’s Lair in my book.

Bring Back The Older Version!

All time favorite but things changed when they updated the game last year. It keeps looping on the falling platform elevator scene. The controls can now only be on the left side of the screen. No more top scores posted. I do not understand why they felt the need to update it. This game was PERFECT pre-2018. Hopefully gets fixed. The game is still fun up until you start looping on the falling platform; then you’re done.

Big mistake

At first, the game seemed and played well. Then, it started to glitch. During the falling platform section, the game wouldn’t let me “act”. Then I was stuck an infinite loop. Now I’m out five bucks.

Works

It is possible to clear all the levels and save the princess. Fun 30 minutes if you have this hanging over your head - running out of quarters before completing the original.

Game locks up

I loved this game growing up but it is horrible. The game locks up and there is no update to fix it. I would not recommend this game to anyone.

Glitch/Hack evident in latest build

Neither I nor my wife can pass the elongated falling sequence (right 3 times, left 3 times, right three times). Another reason not to iOS game. Considering a refund.

Fix the bug on level 9 - STUCK

Game is fun all the way up until level 9 elevator scene. Player will not jump off the platform all the way down through 9 floors it just crashes. Please fix or refund my 5 dollars playa! ?

Issues make it frustrating

I’ve noticed that the app can hang if you attempt to resume a game after exiting completely out and coming back in. There is a particular scenario I ran into after continuing a game in the falling platform scene. There are 9 chances to jump off the platform. I played the scene correctly hitting all 9 times and still died. Maybe I need to find a walk through, but it appeared to me to be a bug. I loved this game and still do, but it needs to be a tad more forgiving in easy mode. I think my screen isn’t calibrated just so or my skin is to dry to register taps reliably..

Fun enough but glitchy

The game is great but has a few horrible glitches, the elevator loop that’s been mentioned by many others and in the scene with the closing brick wall nothing happens the first time around.
